This shows that the expenditures that

that the expenditures for pipe distribution
exceeded the receipts for water main tax

the $l9,17774 stated above, was made up
out Of water rents, or in other words, 49,
593. % was taken that year from water rents
to make up for money stolen from the water
tax fund.
1t is no exaggeration to say that $4,000
was stolen from the water fund that year.
Less than 10000 feet Of pipe, nearly all
small, was laid at cost, including "pump.
ing expenses OF S97, ,35l 35. In no honest
way can the laying OF that amount Of pipes
and the pumping, expenses" be made to
would be glad to lay that amount of pipe,
mostly 6,inCh, and furnish pipe aud all
other material for $4,000.
! call attention to the great difference
between the reported expenditures for water
mains that year and the receipts for water
main tax-s07, 7,35l.35 expended and only
$20519 IS received In return; and the same
state Of things has existed for eleven con-
tipuous years, every year shortage In re-
ceipts from expenditures of from $4,000
up to SO, ,0C0, when there should have been
a large profit to carry to the other side OF
the account.
1t may lie that my presentation Of this
matter is confusing, but have yet to con
verse with tho fret man. woman, or child
that sees 1t in that light, The accounts

DIR DABNEY'S SUCCESSOR.

A correspondent from Siler City
comes before our readers in this issue
and introduces Mr. Haigh, of Fayette-
vile, very gracefully and presents his
claims to the Board of Agriculture for
the position of State Chemist.
The PROGRESSIVE FARMER took occa-
sion, when the claims Of DR.. Battle
were being urged, sometime ago, to
say that we are for a native North
Carolinian for this above all others,
provided we have the man who is in
every way competent and fitted for it's
difficult and responsible duties. First,
we would have a North Carolinian.
Second, we would have the best quail
fed North Carolinian. AS between
Dr., Battle and Dr.. Haigh, whose
names have been presented in this
connection, we express no choice, for
we know but little Of the qualifications
Of either Of these young gentlemen.
We stand by our young men: They
ought to be encouraged in every
legitimate way. North Carolina and
North Carolinians have not appre-
ciated our young men. This paper
will lend all it's best efforts to encour-
age and advance worthy young men.
And while we feel this we must say
frankly that in filling the position in
question it is one Of too much
Importance to the material and
educational interests Of u State
to be in any way governed
by sentiment. 1t is almost certain
that in addition to the highly import.
ant duties already imposed by the law
on our State Chemist, he will be placed
in charge of the Department Of Chem.
istry in our A Agricultural and Mechani
cal College. And whatever may be
his attainments in the laboratory, it
occurs to us that a certain measure Oh
experience would be essential to q
proper and efficient discharge of these
important trusts. And, if, to find
such a man, or one who is fully and
thoroughly equipped for the work, il
became necessary to go outside the
State, we would not hesitate to do SO
If DR.. Haigh or DR.. Battle can "fl
the bill," we would rejoice at a hom'
recognition of his qualifications by
placing him in charge of our Expert
ment Station.

MECKLENBURG COUNTY ALL
ANCE.

This body met with Derita Alliance
on the 21st inst. President N. Gibbon
makes an earnest and efficient presid-
ing officer and commands the respect
and hearty cooperation of all the
members.
The Alliance was opened in due
form, and upon a verification of GER
~tifcates it was found that four ALI
ances were represented. The officers
and members took right hold of the
business and made it a most interest
ing meeting. The Secretary presented
the charter just received from the
National Alliance.
An election of an Executive Com
mittee for the County Alliance resulted
in the selection Of J. A. Wilson, Jno.
Rich and DR.. W. w. Gather. MI.
R. B. Caldwell was elected Business
Agent.
A resolution was adopted request
ing Sub-Alliances to elect their bust
ness agents and make report of same
to the next meeting of the County
Alliance, and this action brought out
a most interesting discussion. -.
A capital"suggestion was made by
Capt. S. B.. Alexander, He. thought
the members of all the Alliances could
use the Agents as a convenient medium
for advertising whatever they had. for
exchange with brother. members. If,
for instance, a brother otha:iif had any kind
of stock or poultry or produce of any
kind, that he lwants.to exchanges for
something. else produced, onathee' farm,
he could easily let it'be known to his

TWO IMPORTANT RESOLU.
TONS.

By reference to the proceedings of
the M~ecklenburg County Alliance,
held on last Monday, it will be seen
tina: the Alliance in that county means
business. 1t will be remembered that
at the meeting of the Executive Com
mittee Of the North Carolina Farmers
Association, held in this city on the
10th ult., an urgent request Vas made
to the farmers of the State to see that
their respective counties are properly
represented in the Farmers Conven-
ton to be held in Greensboro on the
End Wednesday in January next. The
Mecklenburg Alliance will see that
county is strongly represented. The
farmers of every county in the State
should take similar action Immediately.
1t is important and should have prompt
attention. Reduced rates on railroads
and at hotels will be secured for dele
gates. Let it be the largest and, best
Farmers Convention ever held in the
| State.
Mecklenburg is a fine wheat county.
1t is located in a fine wheat section.
Charlotte is a splendid railroad center.
The farmers have almost abandoned
the raising Of wheat in that section.
They could not control the price.
Spectators, gamblers and pools have
1T completely under theirfcontrol. Bur,
mill -four is a thing of the past, Roller
Touring mills have driven it from the
market. With. seommodious grain
elevator at Charlotte and a good pat
ent roller Touring mill, the farmers
can manage to get the value Of their
wheat. It will be built. And then
we may expect-to see not one, but two,
three Or four follow, and they will be
built throughout the wheat-growing
belt of4our State, provided the. farm:
ers will first organize and. determine
that it shall be done. By and through
organization we can do almost any
thing without it we can do nothing.
